The 17th season of the European Team Championship is getting under way, and the Czech team will once again be defending its bronze medals. First, of course, it has to succeed in the qualifying stage, which is the basic prerequisite for advancing to the final four. As usual, the final tournament will be held live at the European Go Congress, which takes place in 's-Hertogenbosch in the Netherlands. Captain Lukáš Podpěra has nominated the following players for this season: 1. Lukáš Podpěra 2. Jan Šimara 3. Jan Prokop 4. Ondřej Kruml 5. Bártík Dach 6. Martin Jurek 7. Jan Komín 8. Vladimír Daněk 9. Zbyněk Dach 10. Vít Brunner 11. Jan Šebela 12. Ondřej Kachyňa This season, a great deal of rotation is expected on the Czech team, with experienced national players alternating with the great hopes of what is now already European Go. Our reigning champions have once again been drawn into the very first round. However, the traditional Tuesday date of October 13 did not suit either the Czech or the Ukrainian team particularly well. For that reason, the captains playing on the first boards agreed to move the entire match to this Friday! The games will start at 7 p.m. The second board will begin two hours earlier, where Artem Kachanovsky (Артем Качановський) and Jan Prokop will face each other after many years. You have plenty to look forward to! The post ME týmů 2026/27 – 1. kolo – 9. 10. 19:00 – Ukrajina appeared first on Goweb.
